I was merrily wandering around with this guy, and what did I find?
Mushrooms!
You don't see these growing wild very often in a dry state like Utah.
I've never come across this kind with the gills seemingly on top of the cap. Anyone know what they are?

Over here similar toadstools are called fairy caps, usually found (as yours were) on the bases of trees or stumps. Not sure what the Latin name is though!
That's a good starting point. I'll do a bit more research and see what I can find out. Thanks, Gretel.
Wow, it really HAS been wet there this year. I guess Eldon will feel right at home in the fall.
Oh, I bet his webbed feet will dry out soon enough. :)
